Update on Bella

This little gal is also full of life and love and adventure and spunk and heart. It's incredible watching your kids grow up because you see the depth of their personalities blossom. Just when I think I have one aspect of her figured out, I see a glimpse of how deep she goes. It's a neat gift and a sobering responsibility too. Here's an update on sweet Bella.

1. She likes to go on adventures - riding her horse as a cowgirl before bedtime, sneaking past the sneaky-alligators in the hallways, flying on her spaceship (aka. bar stool) to see the galaxy, being quiet to not wake up the monkeys in the closet...

2. She still loves animals and particularly like to dress them up in her own clothes.


3. Little Miss Priss does her hair even before bedtime.

4. Just like the rest of her family, she wants to be outside as much as possible. She's a good little helper in the garden too. This was a Sunday afternoon where went to Lowes to plant new flowers in Granddad's pot.
5. I promise I don't tell her to pose. This is what she does when I want a picture. Good golly, we're in trouble.

6. See that mark on her cheek? That's from her big, I mean little, brother. He's only two pounds shy on her so when he gets on top of her she can't get up. And sometimes he scratches. boys...


7. She can turn the water on and water all the plants by herself now. She was teaching JT how to do it one day too. This was before he started spraying everyone else.
8. She's also a big helper in the kitchen. We were making cookies one night and she said she needed to check them out. So she went to her room, got her sunglasses and flashlight, turned all the lights off in the house and checked the cookies. She was very serious peering into the dough and them said, "YEP! They're done". Ok!
